Me too, I imagine it will be six months plus until I have cleared up my current bits and bobs but it doesn't hurt to start to get some ideas together :) |

This seems to be some kind of "memory effect", rather than "burn in". It quickly went away after some normal use. RandyT |

I've actually wondered if one of the slim DLPs wouldn't also be a viable option for this. Seems like there's a lot of depth in a typical pinball cabinet, so there'd be no problem there, and it would be a heck of a lot cheaper. You'd just have to be especially cautious mounting it since it'd probably weigh 50 pounds or so. I just don't know if they make slim DLPs that are small enough to fit, since the smaller HDTVs seem to all be plasma and LCD nowadays . . . |

Don't DLP's use mirrors? I'd imagine that a DLP couldn't take the abuse a pinball machine might dish out. I don't know though. |

That's a good point . . . they may be too sensitive for bumps and the like. |
